Looks good.

What method are you using to boot a kernel? I'm wondering how we
document use cases like booting Ubuntu, booting from different boot
devices, etc. Mostly this is zImage but we could link to
x86-fit-boot.txt also.

There is a syslinux approach used by many ARM boards now - e.g. see
rpi.h which includes config_distro_defaults.h. Should we enable this
for x86 too?

Regards,
Simon
